Wholesome Rage "I still do these I just forget to blog them" and some merch · 4:44pm May 16th, 2019
First, the article. I did a short article on
1: How much wealth Bezos consumes in average human lifetimes
2: How many less lifetimes he'd consume if he just had to eat people as a literal cannibal
3: The carbon outputs of cars verse trains verse planes over 10,000km.
I hope it's good and that you like it I hope it's good and that you like it.
Second, I'm looking into merch, after the break.
So first there's a hoodie, which I'm modelling here in my kitchen.
The logo also looks pretty good done up on a mug. I got one of those too and it's survived the dishwasher looking just as gorgeous.
Ability to actually sell these depends on interest. The hoody's dope as hell though, and I definitely wanted one for myself.
.... what I dislike most in current (global) situation
1) Extreme inetrtia as objective, technological factor
0) Extreme inertia in what kind of humans 'do politics' now, and how acting outside of main track of (non)thought also tend to hit wall.
I strongly dislike this "future predestined by past actions", but I can't see way around this :/ Small changes 'naturally' die, or become part of current flowing in same direction. Majority of humans still can be easily manipulated into same path they were doing before. Majority just doing nothing or acting in interests of few 'top' people still easily can outact/ate minorities, even if overall picture will be worse long-term. And any progressive thought today can't just engulf majority, because majority not really gasping all those problems in way allowing them/us to escape and 'it' seems to have no power to act even if 'it' jumped this conceptual rift ..... Humanity cornered itself! Forces actually capable of directing biggest masses of humans also turned out to be quite dumb forces, not generating humans who can resist them when time come .....
So many words exchanged daily over matters of politics - yet they bring little new in areas related to actual resistance to some quirks in human psychology, still allowing us to fail again and again.
Jeez, I knew trains were more efficient. I didn't realize how much so.
